Abstract	This reflective overview describes the benefits of participation in authentic undergraduate research for students at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU). The department of chemistry and biochemistry at Hampton University has an undergraduate research environment that empowers and fosters a success-oriented research experience for our diverse students. By engaging undergraduate students in research early in their careers, we successfully motivate students to make informed decisions about pursuing STEM careers and entering graduate schools with high confidence. Our structured undergraduate research experiences are created within an inclusive environment that instills a sense of belonging and recognizes the talent all our students bring to STEM. We reflect on our experiences using faculty-student research collaborations within nurturing support systems that leverage African American culture while setting high expectations to improve scientific skills and retain our HBCU students in STEM.
